PS3 issues Playing Magnolia Blu rays (the Hunter,etc)

[Kainefu]

My ps3 won't play The Hunter or Apt 143 both from Magnolia. The previews play and the main menu pops up but no options to play,etc. my other player plays them with no issues. I've even tried updating but no change. Anybody else?

Hmm, The Hunter plays just fine on mine.

Played fine for me as well.

I just got my copy from Netflix, and the main menu video loop plays with the title, but no option to play, setting, extras, anything?

I have had that happen with a couple titles and ejecting the disc and reloading usually fixes it. If that doesn't get it then your player could be in need of a FW update.

FW totally up to date! I suspect an autoring problem as the "menu" screen w/video plays, and it has the "The Hunger" title shown...but there is no options that pop up.
I have never seen this happen, after ~1000 BD played on this PS3. A shame I didn't have another BD player to test it out. Well, all I had to do was inform Netflix on their site and I will have another disc tomorrow. I'm curious to see what happens with this one.
The OP mentioned 2 different movies from the same studio that caused the same problem. Perahaps I'll bump the other disc up in my queue to test as well.
